HS BASE: Most of the good baseball games rained out today

Tough weather day today, as a bunch of important baseball games have been canceled because of the weather. There is no Chaminade-Crespi, no Campbell Hall-Montclair Prep, no Moorpark-Newbury Park, no San Fernando-Arleta, and worst of all, for the fourth time this week no Mission League showdown between Alemany and Harvard-Westlake.

It feels like I’ve been waiting forever to see Harvard-Westlake’s Lucas Giolito and his 94 mph fastball.

At some point, all these rainouts are going to stretch pitching staffs, so teams with the most good pitchers, and not necessarily the best pitcher, are going to have an advantage.

“To be perfectly honest, there is nothing I can do about the weather,” Crespi coach Scott Muckey said. “We’ve had rain years before, and this looks like another one. Will it test our pitching depth? Of course, but that’s why you have the kids on the team, and that’s why you have extra guys.”

The Crespi-Chaminade game has been postponed until 3:30 p.m. Monday at L.A. Valley College.
